About this trial

Health education is one approach to influencing individuals, groups, or communities to achieve better health. The literature indicates that increasing awareness of HPV, along with participation in early screening and vaccination programs, can positively influence attitudes and behaviors. Therefore, this research will be conducted to determine the effect of education using the card game method on the knowledge and health beliefs of hearing-impaired individuals regarding Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Pre-test

HPV Knowledge Level The HPV Information Form: The form is a short form containing 7 information statements. For each statement, 1 point is awarded for a correct answer; no points are awarded for incorrect answers or "I don't know." The total knowledge score is calculated by adding the number of correct answers. A higher score indicates a higher level of knowledge.

Time frame
Before the card game, individuals will be given an HPV Information Form.
2

Pretest

HPV Health Belief Level HPV Infection and Vaccination Health Belief Model Scale: Participant responses are scored based on item scores, and the total score for each subsection is calculated. The calculated total score is divided by the number of items in the subsection to calculate the individual's severity, barrier, susceptibility, and benefit scores. The average score for each subsection ranges from 1 to 4. A high benefit perception score indicates that a participant believes the HPV vaccine is beneficial; a high severity perception score indicates that HPV infection is a serious problem; a high barrier perception score indicates that the barriers to vaccination are numerous; and a high susceptibility perception score indicates significant sensitivity to this issue.

Time frame
Before the card game, the Health Belief Model Scale on HPV Infection and Vaccination will be administered.
